He survived Germany\u2019s Daniel Altmaier in a five-set marathon in the opening round before eliminating Roman Andres Burruchaga of Argentina in four sets in the second round. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Auger-Aliassime is 1-0 all-time against Tabilo, who is ranked 36th in the world. The 28-year-old Tabilo had never gotten past the third round at a Grand Slam prior to this year\u2019s Roland-Garros tournament. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">A win against Tabilo would give Auger-Aliassime his first quarterfinal berth at Roland-Garros in his career. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Auger-Aliassime was eliminated in the fourth round in each of the 2022 and 2024 tournaments, losing to clay kings Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz, respectively. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">With two-time defending champion Alcaraz missing the tournament due to a wrist injury and both 24-time Grand Slam winner Novak Djokovic and world No. 1 Jannik Sinner already eliminated in stunning fashion, the door is open for Auger-Aliassime to make a run in Paris. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">A Canadian men\u2019s singles player has never won a tennis Grand Slam while Bianca Andreescu is the lone Canadian women\u2019s to accomplish the feat, doing so at the 2019 US Open. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Auger-Aliassime\u2019s best Grand Slam finish was in 2021 and 2025 when he made the semi-final of the US Open. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Elsewhere, Canada\u2019s Gabriela Dabrowski and Brazilian partner Luisa Stefani have a third-round women\u2019s doubles match against Norway\u2019s Ulrikke Eikeri and Quinn Gleason of United States. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsn.ca\/tennis\/daily-roland-garros-coverage-across-the-tsn-networks-1.1964934\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.tsn.ca\/tennis\/daily-roland-garros-coverage-across-the-tsn-networks-1.1964934\">You can watch the match Monday morning at approximately 6:30am ET\/3:30pm PT on TSN+.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Nadia Lagaev will also be on court in first-round girls\u2019 doubles action at approximately 9:30am ET\/6:30am PT. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Montreal\u2019s Felix Auger-Aliassime is the last Canadian singles player remaining at Roland-Garros and has an opportunity to make&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":706975,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[442],"tags":[712,49,48,82,593],"class_list":["post-706974","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tennis","tag-apple-news","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-sports","tag-tennis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/706974","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=706974"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/706974\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/706975"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=706974"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=706974"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=706974"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
